I am requesting the amount of isk we get paid at the end of a match to be doubled. Its not an easy task to break even in this game, and if your like me, you don't like using budget suits because quite frankly, you don't like dying in 3 shots. If this is too much to ask, hows about side tasks with the contracts we can take on for like 50,000 isk, and it we pull it off, we are rewarded with more isk. So it would be like;
Objective: Capture or assist capture an objective and get 5 kills near the objective
Challenge cost: -20,000 isk
Completion reward:+200,000 isk
Challenge duration: 2 matches
I am open to criticism
Sentinel: I am heavy weapons guy...
Commando: I got a RR and a CR, Im so good.
Logi: In it 4 the points and points only.

but heres the thing, proto stompers will always be proto stompers. The bigger corps are full of em' and they provide $ for the corp members so they stay proto stomping, while you got guys like us trying so hard to make a profit each match against proto gear. This is another one of those things tthat make noobs quit. I'm sure they start the game not knowing how easy it will become to be broke in a matter of a few matches, then next thing you know, you got noobs who cant afford what they skilled into and stuck using militia gear.

You are correct, some proto stompers will be proto stompers. This is motly because of funds from PC, corp subsidies, etc. PC has it's own issues which I won't go into here, but I agree that PC funds going into pubs is a problem. However, if you were to raise the payouts, players like me, who currently only dabble in proto, would be able to afford and use it much more often. Right now, the amount of ISK I earn is the only thing holding me back. If you raise that, I would be able to afford (and probably would) proto much more. Then the difference between me and a noob becomes skillpoints (rather than both skillpoint and ISK limitations), and I think you see where I am going with this. The current payouts limit the amount of proto stomping to those who are subsidized by their corp in some way, those who have been frugal and are rich, and those who use aurum gear. If you raise the payouts, aurum gear sales would go down (I know, saving ISK isn't the only reason people use AUR gear, but it's one of the main 2 reasons people do it), which in turn, hurts CCP and game development.
good points, so your still on board with the challenges then?

I don't know if you realize this, but I dropped the whole idea about doubling the pay and sticking to my idea of challenges. but also, remember this; if the money was doubled, you would still have to be superior in a match to make 500,000+

First off. Run a damn MLT MIn-Heavy with a MLT kinkat, your LW of choice, SA of choice, Nade of choice and run amok. You aren't dying in 3 shots...i promise. The Gal MLT Med can also stack 3 mlt armor plates and an equipment. Grind it out like the rest of us.
um, YOU can run that stuff if your actually that broke. My grinding gear is all adv. I may consider myself as broke, but not that broke to use that stuff. And you mentioned the gallente med suit that fits armor plates, you do realize not every one only uses armor plates right? Also, I don't know who this rest of us is, but not all of us have a lot of spare time on our hands to do this. But thanks for stating the obvious thing to do, which BTW, I made this post to avoid.

I have over 100 mil ISK. I'm not broke silly.
Then stop ********. I would expect as much for someone who has time to isk grind "silly"
